Kinesiology is the study and practice of muscle health and monitoring the muscular system to find any imbalances and strains that might be causing injury or distress.
Oftentimes, it is falsely conflated with the work of a sports coach or a gym trainer. While both those jobs are important too, kinesiology is its own separate discipline that revolves around an instinctive and holistic approach to healing, strengthening, and re-aligning your body. This, in turn, also aids the healing of the mind.
At Positive Living, not only do we believe in the power of kinesiology, but we also provide it as a service that heals holistically. Your body can benefit from it in a number of ways, including:
- Enhanced capacity for learning: Not only does this involve the improved cognitive function you’ll require to pick up new information and skills, but also the stronger muscle memory that will help you adapt to different fitness regimes.
- Improved athletic performance: Your endurance will rise, and your recovery time will shorten, giving you the optimal physical conditioning for exercise and sports.
- Reduced emotional, physical, and mental stress: Let go of all tension and mental blocks, open your mind and let everything flow freely and fully. You’ll most certainly feel calmer, happier, and more relaxed post-workout once kinesiology is a part of your self-care.
- Improved decision-making skills: Remember the improved cognitive function we mentioned? This is where that pays off in spades! A mind that functions better makes better decisions on all levels.
- Identified nutritional excess or deficiency: Moderation is key. Your dietary habits will come into focus and you shall learn what you need more or less of in order to function at your fullest and best capacity.
- Muscle injury recovery support: Exerted yourself during resistance training or cardio? Heal faster with kinesiology giving the right tools and treatments to get back to good form.
Overall, it’s an excellent way to rehabilitate your body and condition it towards an optimal state. Alongside your muscular health, you also help balance your hormones and reduce any mental stress through the release of endorphins.
